[ laughter ] >> caller: this is what romney is doing. there's no way he can release these tax returns because it will scandalize the mormon church. he is reducing his capital by giving to himself. if you look at the mormon church they are the richest church in the whole world? why? it is because of the taxes. and this is why ann romney and mitt they always talk about how much he gives to charity. basically he is giving to himself. >> bill: yeah, eric i think you are on to something heard, but what i have heard is the really reason mitt romney won't release his tax returns is
